I have a niche practice with a specific focus in perinatal mental health. This means I work with women during the first few years of their postpartum experience after birth as well as women experiencing infertility, pregnancy or infant loss, birth trauma, or any life experience surrounding perinatal period. I have a certificate in Perinatal Mental Health Counseling from Postpartum Support International, and I continue to receive specialized training and consultation in this area because it is such a passion of mine.

I know life can be busy and hectic, we often don’t take time to pause for ourselves. In our sessions together, you will have the opportunity to do just that.

Therapy is a gift that you give to yourself. You allow yourself the time and space to sort through issues and challenges. You are brave enough to try new things, be honest with yourself, and deepen your understanding of yourself. As your therapist, it is my privilege to travel the path with you, helping you to create it and to guide you as you go. I view people through a healthy strivings lens. This means that I look for the healthy motivations that underlie even the most unhealthy behaviors, and I always find them. We then will work with those healthy strivings to find healthier and happier ways to live.

Life can be complicated and it is not always easy to ask for help. Entering into counseling is a wonderful investment in yourself. As an integrative, holistic therapist and coach I provide safe support for you to learn to appreciate and fully experience yourself, your life, and your relationships.

We can utilize cognitive, mindfulness, nutritional, and other approaches individually tailored to your needs.

This is Deepika Pandey, Licensed Behavior Specialist. Currently, i am working with the Neurodiversity population.

People are people. I have worked with different groups of people for over 20 years and have come to realize that most people want the same things. They want to feel safe. They want to be happy. And they want the people they care about to be safe and happy too. The question is why so many people struggle to actually achieve this? I think for most people the answer is that they 1. aren't sure about what they want and how to get it and/or 2. they have thinking errors that get in the way of them making the progress they would like.

There is no need to suffer in silence. Over the years I have heard people say, "I regret that I waited so long to come to counseling." When people struggle with life's challenges alone, they usually have little success. This solitary method often results in a deep sense of hopelessness and unhappiness. At the Samaritan Counseling Center, it has been my privilege to empower men, women and adolescents to make their lives more fulfilling. During counseling sessions, you will experience a safe environment to tell your story-and then together, we will begin the journey to hope and healing.

You deserve validation for the unique grief you are experiencing. You may be moving through the days in a fog, unable to stop thinking about your pregnancy loss, infertility, or how difficult you are finding the perinatal/postpartum period. You may feel like culture is telling you to "get over" what is happening. If this is you, there is hope and a way to move through this grief.

Sometimes personal thoughts and feelings about life can be upsetting, disturbing, seem incomprehensible or even unchangeable. Over time these kinds of experiences can erode our personal sense of vitality, meaningfulness, freedom, and overall wellbeing. Although we know that some suffering is a normal part of life, suffering needlessly or endlessly simply does not have to be. In my office I provide a quiet, comfortable, respectful, and very confidential atmosphere.
